REV ROBERT HUNTS LETTER

To Me Editor of Me Ners:-
 I have been more slow than many ,thers in acknowledging the receipt of vour valuable gift, "Our Country" Long indeed has it been since I have read book of equal interest. Every American citizen should read 1t, and it should be put into the hands of every migrant.
 It was my hope and belief after the war of the rebellion that our national fife would flow on peacefully, without agitation. at least without convulsion, bnt I find I did not prognosticate wisely. God has touched the pulse of rhe world and given it triple beat and xe are rushing on to earth's final scenes with rapidity that is startling. Ques- ions of social, political and commercial magnitude. which formerly would have aken centuries, must be settled now in | decade. The earth heaves with ground swells of revolutions and the air misses md detonates with the ightnings and hunders of quick coming change. And there is but one remedy for threatened lemolItion and ruin, That is the Golden Rule. The statesmanship of Jesus is to rule the future if 1t Is to be safely and we'll ruled.
 It is manifest now beyond all intelli- gent questioning that a thoroughly christianized America will furnish salt enough to save the world. At least s5,OOO,OO should be put into christian zing work and institutions on the frontier at once.
 Many thanks for 'sOur Country" and the ever welcome CONNECTICUT WESTERN NEWS. As ever yours,
 ROBERT HUNT.

The Story of Three Aisters.

The Torrington Register tells the following story: There was born in Goshen, March 26, 1788, a triplet of girls, who made one of the most remark able records known. They were Sybil, Sarah and Susan Hurlburt, children of Gideon and Anna (Beach) Hurlburt
 For the great period of eighty seven years this triplet remained unbroken, Sybil dying first at that age, in June, 1875. Her welded name was Ludding- ton. In October of the next year Susan (Mrs GrennelD died at the age of 88. Sarah lived to the age of 95, dying Jan uary II, 1883. Her welded name was Bushnell She was the grandmother of Mrs Albert Saxton of this town, the other two being her great-aunts. These sisters looked so much alike-particu- larly Mrs. Grennell and Mrs Bushnell that up to 75 or 80 years of age it was difficult for the most intimate friends to tell them apart; even they would mis- take one another among themselves.
